(NEWSER) – The most popular slot machine out of 1,900 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, the "Lion's Share" has had a reputation since it was installed in the '90s for boasting a sizable jackpot—thanks to no one ever having won it. It's so popular that it's played once every five seconds, reports the Guardian. So Linda and Walter Misco from New Hampshire couldn't quite believe it when they watched the elusive three green emblems line up in front of them on their last night in town, and walked out of the casino $2.4 million richer.
